EMISON AU. In a world where slavery was never abolished, superstar athlete Emily Fields is under constant public scrutiny. When she impulsively purchases a slave, her world takes an unexpected turn. Her latest acquisition impacts not only her career and personal life but also Emily's very ideas of consent and ownership. NOT A KINKY BDSM STORY.

"Seven seconds. That's all it took for me to figure it out. Two seconds for me to turn on the TV, the news channel coming up immediately. That's all we ever watched anymore, always expecting to see our lies come crumbling down around us. Then four more for my brain to assess what was flashing on the screen, the last one left for me to stagger on the spot..." Set post 5x05. Emison.

Set after the season 5 final, ignoring everything after that. Emison. ANGST (not kidding this is going to hurt). It's a process and sometimes it can't be fixed. Maybe too much has happened. How much can someone change in three years? MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY.

Emily and Alison try to hide the fact that they share a bedroom when Emily's parents come to visit for Thanksgiving.

They walked the same halls in high school, but they haven't met until now, six years after graduation. With obstacles in the way, how will Emily and Alison finally come together? No A or Alison disappearance. Emison.

Ali can't really sort out the jumble of stars above her to see the pattern Em's talking about so she gives up after a few minutes. Emily takes Alison's left hand in hers,holding it firmly while she points to the pattern she thinks Ali's seeing. Her big brown eyes are sparkling with such mirth as she continues her explanation and Ali sighs dreamily as the stars twinkle above. Emison

"My Mermaid couldn't come to me, so I came to her."

Emily and Alison. Broken promises, bracelets and what-could-have been. Oneshot, from pre-pilot to post-finale.
